Whisky Creek Fire Holds Steady

Size of the Whisky Creek Fire southeast of Cascade Locks in the Mark O. Hatfield Wilderness remains at 2,057 acres, while containment is still at 9%.  Northwest Complex Incident Management Team 10 Operations Section Chief Cary Neu says crews continue to focus on the eastern perimeter of the fire.  Significant progress was made on containment lines around spot fires near Black Lake, further increasing confidence those areas will hold.  Mastication was completed on Forest Roads 630 and 650 was finished, while it continues to progress along Forest Road 2810.  Firefighters scouted the terrain near Wahtum Lake for possible contingency lines.
